Conte de Luxembourg

--- Sep 1346- Nov 1346

In Sep 1346, Charles, King of Bohemia, and Count
of Luxembourg, was elected King of the Romans.

1. In 1437, after the death of Emperor Sigismund,
an uncle of Elizabeth of
Görlitz, his claims to
Luxembourg passed to his daughter Elizabeth (+1442),wife of Albert (+1439), Kings of
the Romans
and Duke of
Austria.

Albert made contract
with the town of Luxembourg and had the citadel handed over to his partisans.
Albert arranged to redeem the mortgage from Elizabeth of
Görlitz. However, Albert
died in October 1439, before these arrangements bore fruits and his widow,
Elizabeth was in no position to prosecute her claims [27: p.277].

2. In 1439, after the
death of Albert, his widow Elizabeth ceded her rights to Luxembourg to her elder
daughter Anne of Austria (+1462) who would marry Duke William of Saxony (+1482)
[19: tome VIII; p.XII] [27: p.277].

3. In Oct 1441, by the
Treaty of Hesdin, Elizabeth of Görlitz, Duchess of
Luxembourg, made Philip "the
Good,” Duke of Burgundy,
her universal heir and appointed him as her Governor of Luxembourg. In Feb 1442,
she asked the Estates of Luxembourg to accept Philip "the Good.” In
Luxembourg there was an armed opposition to the rule of "the Good" led by Count
Ernest of Gleichen, who supported the rights of Anne of Austria and Duke William
of Saxony in Luxembourg until 1443 [27: p.278-279].

@ Removed:

- Voorne

Elizabeth of
Görlitz
ceded the Lordship of Voorne to Frank of Borsselen (+1470), husband of Jacoba
(+1436), the former Countess of Holland & Hainaut (1433).

1. Ladislas "the Posthumus", King of Hungary and
Bohemia, Duke of Austria, etc., claimed Luxembourg as the direct heir of Emperor
Sigmund. His troops occupied parts of the duchy. He opened negotiations with
Charles VII, King of France to sell his rights, confirmed by his betrothal to
the King's daughter, but died before a final settlement was reached [17:
p.216-217].

2. After the death of Ladislas "the Posthumus",
his sister
Anne of
Austria, wife of William "the Brave", Landgrave of Thuringia, inherited his
claims to Luxembourg. Then she ceded her rights in Luxembourg to King Charles
VII of France.

3.
George of Podiebrady (+1471),
the successor of
King Ladislas
in Bohemia,
took the title of Duke of Luxembourg.
